Parents need to know that the lead character is a middle-aged divorcee who's living with a much younger man and enjoying an active sex life. Most episodes contain jokes that adults might find funny, but which might confuse younger viewers or go over their heads entirely. For example, in one episode, Fran tells her son that she's skipping her bikini wax because her hysterectomy scar hasn't yet healed and comments favorably when her pregnant cousin says that she's already had her doctor-OK'd daily glass of wine with breakfast.
